Answer:

8 boxes of pencils and 2 boxes of erasers

Step-by-step explanation:

2 times 4 equals 8, which is the part where she needs to buy 4 times as many pencils as erasers.

8 times 2 is 16 and 1 times 2 is 2 add both 16 and 2 together and you get 18 so she spends all $18

The 12th term of the arithmetic sequence is 10.5. The 18th term of this sequence is 13.5. Find the common difference and the fir
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

common difference is 0.5

first term is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>use </em><em>the </em><em>formula</em><em> for</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>nth </em><em>term </em><em>of </em><em>an </em><em>ap </em><em>Tn=</em><em>a+</em><em>(</em><em>n-1)</em><em>d</em>

<em>T12=</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>T18=</em><em>1</em><em>3</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>therefore</em><em> </em><em>come </em><em>up </em><em>with </em><em>two </em><em>equations</em>

<em>T12=</em><em>a+</em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>2</em><em>-</em><em>1</em><em>)</em><em>d</em>

<em>1</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>=</em><em>a+</em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>d</em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>equation</em><em>)</em>

<em>T18</em><em>=</em><em>a+</em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>8</em><em>-</em><em>1</em><em>)</em><em>d</em>

<em>1</em><em>3</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>=</em><em>a+</em><em>1</em><em>7</em><em>d</em><em>(</em><em>2</em><em>n</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>equation</em><em>)</em>

<em>then </em><em>solve </em><em>both </em><em>as </em><em>a </em><em>simultaneous</em><em> </em><em>equation</em>

<em>a+</em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>d</em><em>=</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>a+</em><em>1</em><em>7</em><em>d</em><em>=</em><em>1</em><em>3</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>-6d/</em><em>-</em><em>6</em><em>=</em><em>-</em><em>3</em><em>/</em><em>-</em><em>6</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>d=</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>use </em><em>one </em><em>of</em><em> the</em><em> </em><em>equations</em><em> </em><em>to </em><em>find </em><em>the </em><em>first</em><em> </em><em>term</em>

<em>a+</em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>(</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>)</em><em>=</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>a+</em><em>5</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>=</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>a=</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>-</em><em>5</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>a=</em><em>5</em>

Sylvia has a total of 16 trading cards: 8 superhero cards, 4 princess cards,2 villain cards, and 2 wildlife cards. what is the r
balu736 [363]
There as 16 cards, 2 of which are wildlife cards, so the ratio is 16 : 2. We can simplify it by dividing both sides by 2, so we'll get the ratio of 8 : 1.

I hope this helps! :)
